Hello Gigi, The templates in Pages contain quite a lot of placeholder text that disappears as soon as you start typing over it. You can actually read it if you want to. The inportant thing to remember is never to use Quick Nav in Pages, and that you have to interact with the text, then use the arrow keys without the VO keys to find the placeholder text which is highlighted as soon as you move into it.
Just using the arrow keys is also the way to find tables and other elements that VoiceOver doesn't read. If you find a highlighted space, chances are it's a table. But you can find out easily enough by using the Services menu item, New TextEdit Window Containing Selection. I've created a shortcut for this since I use it all the time. You have to create the short cut in System Preferences.

I could get them to work fine in Numbers. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.
